Hello, my wife and I purchased a new home and moved in with our two sons in October... (I know I definitely should have looked into this sooner)...
In our backyard, the previous owners have grapevines running up the beams of an elevated patio which is truly set-up beautifully.. The only problem is, my wife nor I know how to care for, or manage them for the life of us... I've watched videos, and tried to read up on it a little, but all if come away with is that I have to cut back the previous years growth down to two buds... But I have no clue what grew and/or didn't grow last year etc... I've also read that I should have done this in late March, early April.. Today is May 8th. So I know I'm late, and I guess even if I have to lose this year's fruit growth to save them, that's what I will have to do.. I am going to upload pictures of the set up that we have.. If anyone could please take a few minutes to look at them and advise me what to do, we would greatly appreciate it. Thank you so much in advance.. BTW if it matters we live in Long Island, NY
